As the government shutdown continues, Congress can’t come to terms on spending, including for Medicaid. It’s easy to confuse Medicare with Medicaid, but there are several key differences. Here’s what you should know. https://t.co/2awowYCqpi ...

Start this hour in Washington DC where the federal government remains shut down today amid a tense standoff over federal funding. House Minority Leader Democratic Congressman Hakee Jeff is standing by with the Democrat's position and to respond to House Speaker Mike Johnson who said this moments ago. We're in day three of the shutdown because 44 Senate Democrats have decided to reject the very simple, very clean, very conventional continuing resolution that we passed in the House to keep the government open ...

As Congress Fights Over Benefits, Here’s A Quick Look At Medicare And Medicaidhttps://t.co/Bs043RNjrt https://t.co/5K5xLG5wjM ...

RT JD Vance (@JDVance)This is important--money is fungible--and it's why the Democrat and media lie that health care is not going to illegals is so preposterous. Consider, for instance, two state Medicaid programs--Ohio and New York. New York gives Medicaid to illegals and Ohio doesn't.When the government gives billions of dollars to New York for Medicaid, that frees up state money in New York that can then be spent on illegals.It's like if you give a mobster $100 but he PROMISES you he won't spend the mone ...

There are three things that Democrats are asking for here. Number one, with the Trump mega bill, there was a lot of health care provisions that passed cuts that were made to Medicaid. Democrats basically want to reverse all of what Republicans just did only a few months ago.Number two, the White House has done a number of what's called rescissions, basically taking funds that Congress in a bipartisan manner allocated to various programs. And the White House said, hey, we're not actually going to use that fu ...

er is committing to offer all of their prescription medications to Medicaid and it will be at the most favored nation's prices. It's going to have a huge impact on bringing Medicaid cost down uh like nothing else. That was President Trump at the White House on Tuesday announcing that Fizer has agreed to offer most favored nation pricing to Medicaid matching the lowest price offered in other developed nations.Fizer also announced it will participate in a new website that'll be launched next year by the admin ...

You're on the verge of a shutdown, bro. The argument on the other side Yeah. says that the tax credits and the health care subsidies will largely go to folks that are here illegally.Can you confirm or debunk that. First of all, it's a it's a very small portion of people that we're talking about. So 90% is not anything to do with those who are undocumented.That's just the math, right. I mean, so we can argue about the 10%, but we have in this country something called emergency Medicaid. What does that mean.I ...

President J. D. Vance continued to pedal Republican claims that Democrats shut down the government in order to give undocumented immigrants free health care.Here is what he said in the briefing room yesterday. Again, not telling the truth. >> They have done instead is to shut down the government because we won't give billions of dollars to healthcare funding for illegal aliens.That is what has actually happened to the American people who are watching. The reason your government is shut down at this very min ...

So listen, you've heard all this talk of this big sticking point here specifically on healthcare. Give me four minutes. We're going to go through it's a reality check.You've heard you've heard a lot of claims here. So let's break it down. Okay, big picture.Let's start with something that affects 24 million Americans and that's Obamacare, the Affordable Care Act. Same thing. 24 million people use Obamacare for their healthare.Most of them, the vast majority get these special tax credits, right. these these t ...
